Patch to fix the issue

The default time format for Sweden should be HH:MM:SS, not HH.MM.SS.

This is the current output from date:
lÃr 20 nov 2010 14.32.22 CET

Should be:
lÃr 20 nov 2010 14:32:22 CET

Here are a few reference:
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Date_and_time_notation_in_Sweden
  "Times are written without notable exceptions with the 24-hour clock, with
  colons as separators (although periods are sometimes used instead of colons,
  especially in hand written text, as it was an older Swedish standard),"
